Chapter 629: 528, Political Achievement Project (Requesting Monthly Tickets)_2 Chapter 629: 528, Political Achievement Project (Requesting Monthly Tickets)_2 Kang Zhichao was incredibly audacious; to flaunt his relationship with Yang Hao, he even deliberately pretended to be confused between private and public settings while speaking.
The words “Yang” almost slipped out of his mouth, and this move indeed attracted the attention of the other executives.
Everyone was already curious as to why Kang Zhichao could be present in this meeting room, especially since his direct superior, Sun Hai, wasn’t there.
Now, Kang Zhichao had inadvertently helped everyone solve the mystery.
Clearly, his relationship with Mr.
Yang was profound, and judging by the way he addressed him, he seemed to be an elder.
So there was this relationship!
Kang Zhichao was on the rise!
The leaders couldn’t help but sigh internally, and some were already thinking about making a connection with Kang Zhichao as soon as possible.
Although the acquisition was not yet a sure thing, if Mr.
Yang really did acquire the steel plant outright, Kang Zhichao would certainly be promoted.
He might even climb to the top position, but that would depend on how deep their relationship was.
“I don’t have a specific plan yet,”
Yang Hao replied casually.
He had a poor impression of Kang Zhichao and couldn’t even be bothered to pay attention to him.
“If you’re not in a rush to return to Hucheng tonight, come over to my place.
Try your aunt’s cooking.
I don’t know if Manni has mentioned it to you, but your aunt’s sweet and sour ribs and soy-braised carp are really delicious,”
Kang Zhichao, fearing that others wouldn’t know about his relationship with Yang Hao, made it clear.
Upon hearing his words, the executives of Xiangyang Steel Plant who had just been speculating about their relationship were all shocked.
Judging by the way Kang Zhichao spoke, he was actually Mr.
Yang’s uncle.
This relationship was beyond everyone’s expectations.
With this, once Yang Hao became the new owner of Xiangyang Steel Plant, Kang Zhichao, as his uncle, was destined to soar!
If anyone wished to continue working in the plant, they had to establish a good relationship with Kang Zhichao!
Therefore, in an instant, many people’s gazes towards Kang Zhichao became much more respectful.
The leader sitting next to him even stealthily topped up Kang’s teacup with water.
Kang Zhichao, both alarmed and delighted at the sight, had revealed his identity exactly to show off, raise his own value, and attract attention.
And now, his ploy had an immediate effect; even the leaders of higher rank were voluntarily pouring tea for him.
“Director Kang, this isn’t the proper setting for chit-chat, is it?”
Zheng Dapeng, who couldn’t stand Kang Zhichao’s smugness, commented disdainfully, then added, “Besides, Mr.
Yang and Manni aren’t married yet, they’re just dating.”
“Aren’t you declaring yourself an uncle rather prematurely?”
Zheng Dapeng directly exposed the real relationship between Kang Zhichao and Yang Hao.
What uncle!
It’s not official yet!
Due to yesterday’s encounter, Yang Hao had a rather poor impression of Zheng Dapeng, who was simply a second-generation reliant on his father, with nothing impressive about him.
But at this moment, Yang Hao actually felt a bit of fondness for him; Zheng was really a mouthpiece!
Talking about family affairs on such an occasion?
Must be out of his mind!!
Zhang Fengshou, who sat beside Wei Mingjun, observed everything with cold indifference as if none of it had to do with him.
Yet, deep down, Zhang Fengshou was quite anxious as he awaited the response that Zheng Dongshan would bring back.
If the province didn’t agree to sell off Xiangyang Steel Plant as a whole, then his grand blueprint would never have a chance to materialize.
Kang Zhichao’s face turned red with embarrassment; he glanced at Zheng Dapeng.
If it were in the past, he definitely wouldn’t have dared to respond, but times had changed.
Kang Zhichao was about to become “Imperial Family,” so how could he fear a “former crown prince”?
Therefore, with an awkward laugh, he replied, “We’re not talking about work right now, are we?”
“Besides, Director Zheng, you don’t know the inside story.
I have long been Mr.
Yang’s uncle…”
Kang Zhichao, his podium dismantled, was reluctantly silent.
He wanted to blurt out that Yang Hao had once been married to Li Manshu, but upon reaching his lips, he finally realized that it was indeed inappropriate to say such things in this setting.
Moreover, Yang Hao might not even wish to bring up that unhappy marriage, so he only hinted at it coyly.
Could they have already registered their marriage?
Zheng Dapeng’s lips twitched, clearly misunderstanding.
How could he have known that Yang Hao had first married the sister, then divorced her, and afterwards started dating the younger sister, Li Manni?
Just then, Zheng Dongshan returned, and in an instant, everyone’s eyes were fixed on him.
The answer he brought back was of great importance to everyone present, and although he hadn’t yet spoken, Zheng Dongshan’s face already revealed some clues; his lips were curved in a smile.
“Mr.
Yang, I have already communicated with the leadership,” Zheng Dongshan said.
“Xiangyang Steel Plant can be sold as a whole, but there is a prerequisite; the steel plant cannot be relocated to another province after acquisition, nor can any branches be established in other provinces.”
After taking his seat, Zheng Dongshan directly announced the results of his communication.
Indeed, before the discussion, he knew that there was a high probability the leadership would agree, as some leaders had previously brought up the matter proactively.
No one discussed the issue further because no individual or enterprise had previously proposed to fully acquire Xiangyang Steel Plant.
“Such a large steel plant, how could it possibly be moved just like that.”
Yang Hao shook his head.
A steel plant is not like other factories; the costs of relocation would be astronomically high since many parts would be immovable.
In fact, the second part of the condition—the prohibition of establishing branches in other provinces—was the main stipulation.
Yang Hao could understand and accept this condition because he had no plans to establish branches unless Xiangyang Steel Plant truly revitalized under Zhang Fengshou’s reforms in the future.
But that would likely be a matter of years from now, and there was no need to consider it at present, so the condition posed by Zheng Dongshan was almost as if it hadn’t been mentioned at all to Yang Hao.
“So, Mr.
Yang, you can accept the prerequisite condition, right?” Zheng Dongshan asked.
“Yes.”
“I can accept it.”
Yang Hao nodded with a smile, “Then, shall we talk about the acquisition price?”
Yang Hao did not want to waste too much time on this matter, therefore, he wished to expedite the acquisition process.
As long as the price could be agreed upon, other details could be negotiated slowly afterward.
Zheng Dongshan didn’t beat around the bush either.
Clearing his throat, he said firmly, “Currently, the market value of Xiangyang Steel Plant is 11 billion, and a full acquisition should definitely include a premium.”
“The leadership suggests a 20 percent premium, which would be 13.2 billion!”
As he spoke, Zheng Dongshan was intently watching Yang Hao’s eyes, trying to gauge his reaction.
However, much to Zheng Dongshan’s disappointment, Yang Hao remained unfazed, showing little reaction upon hearing the price.
Wei Mingjun, Kang Zhichao, and others also looked towards Yang Hao, curious to see his response, while internally everyone couldn’t help but feel that leadership’s asking price was indeed steep.
13.2 billion!
He had the nerve to state such a figure!
During the previous financing negotiations, the valuation was based on 10 billion, and even that was just a hopeful figure on the part of the plant, not agreed upon by the other party.
And now they dared to ask for 13.2 billion!
However, trading is just like this; the seller can ask for the moon, while the buyer can negotiate fiercely.
An asking price is one thing, but the closing price is another!
“Regarding the price, we cannot simply take your word for it.
I need to conduct an asset assessment of Xiangyang Steel Plant.
Mr.
Zheng, your side can cooperate with that, right?”
After a moment of silence, Yang Hao finally spoke.
“No problem.”
“It’s standard procedure, our plant will certainly cooperate!”
Zheng Dongshan promptly expressed his stance.
“Good, then let’s wait until my side completes the asset assessment before discussing the specific acquisition price,” Yang Hao said.
Although Zhang Fengshou had already provided an acquisition price yesterday, the necessary procedures still had to be followed, to see what the professional assessment agency would value Xiangyang Steel Plant at.
The meeting concluded.
The outcome far exceeded Zheng Dongshan’s expectations.
He had invited Yang Hao to the factory to discuss cooperation rather tentatively.
He never imagined that this meeting would achieve such significant results.
Once Xiangyang Steel Plant was successfully acquired by Yang Hao, Zheng Dongshan, being within the system, would be credited with a great achievement.
After the acquisition of the steel plant was finalized, he was very likely to be transferred to another large state-owned enterprise, and the chances were that the scale of this enterprise would be even greater than that of Xiangyang Steel Plant.
In other words, Zheng Dongshan was about to step onto a much larger stage, so for him, this acquisition was a very significant political accomplishment!
What do you think?
